After resting at home for two days, Geng Qiu's body recovered. Ah Hao is also very good, however, he obviously remembers some things, but he doesn't dare to think about it himself, for fear of getting sick again. Accustomed to a busy working life, the two of them couldn't sleep at night.

"Hehe, you see we have silver now." Ah Hao smiled and counted the silver in his hand. Since they didn't want to sleep, the two were counting the silver again, and they were poor and happy.

"Really, a lot? If you want to use it like you did two days ago, you can't stand using it a few times. Geng Qiu sighed. He roughly understands the current prices, and forty taels of silver can be enough for them to live in peace and stability for three or five years. But the problem is, I still have to see a doctor for Ah Hao, this medical treatment is a completely bottomless pit, plus his disease is an incurable disease, who knows how much money it will cost?

"Or, let's go into the mountains again tomorrow." Ah Hao hurriedly asked.

"No, I can't go again this winter. Even if you can get more prey, you can't go any further. The people of the village will be jealous. It's better for us to keep a low profile, and the income is not bad this time. Geng Qiu said.

If he hadn't taken this into account, he wouldn't have sold a large wild boar and given it to the villagers. When everyone gets benefits, they won't do bad things behind their backs. If someone wants to do something bad, they are not afraid. But when the whole village comes to deal with them, it will be a big trouble. In fact, if it weren't for the fact that their family had three strong laborers, among whom Ah Hao was not only superb in martial arts, but also experienced, where could he have hit so many prey so easily. So even if others are jealous, they know that there is no way to compare with them.

"Alas, if you want to eat more meat, you have to hide it, it's really troublesome." Ah Hao said dissatisfied.

If it weren't for the fact that their home was at the very edge of the village, there were some things that they couldn't hide. Even so, in order to be afraid that someone would come to mess around when he was idle in winter, Geng Qiu was very careful to hide some things tightly. Although their house is relatively large and there are many utility rooms in the yard, some things are secretly hidden in the pyre.

Geng Qiu and Ah Hao also deliberately found a wonderful place to hide on the back mountain today, and now they have more stocks at home, and they hide some in the mountains, anyway, it is convenient to take them in and out, and they are not at ease just hiding at home. After all, now that the whole village is combined, I'm afraid that his family will not have any money.

And his family now has a lot of food and meat, so he still has to hide it. You can't have endless food and meat at home, and other people's families can't eat coarse food, this situation will cause people's eyes, and who knows if it will lead to some disasters. Besides, the winter is too idle, and the children in a village will definitely run around, if the children play hide and seek, inadvertently find the things in the pyre, go back and tell people that Ah Niu's family also has endless good things, all hidden in the pyre. That doesn't lead to a bunch of things.

Although it seems that there are a lot of things left at home, even if the people in the village come to check it carefully, they will only feel that there are a few more than their own home. After all, their family does not produce grain, and they have no fields, although there are a few acres of newly opened fields, who knows if they can grow crops or not. Besides, they had four adults who could work, and they could hunt, and they had brought some possessions with them. There are only two children, among whom Brother Ning is so old, and a child of his age in the village can do a lot of work. So even if this family is richer, it's normal. It's just that your family can't be much better than everyone else.

In fact, although this village is poor, there is really no such thing as starving to death. After all, there are a lot of fields in every household here, although there is little fertile land, but there are many thin fields, and most of them do not need to pay taxes, a piece here and there, as long as there is no famine year, and it is a hard-working and willing family, most people can mix their stomachs and fill their stomachs. After all, there are only one or two people who are lazy and lazy.

The whole village is like a big family, and there are not only village chiefs but also clan elders in the village, and what they say is still very good here. If there are lazy guys, they will be taught obediently. It's really difficult at home, and everyone will pull a few handfuls. Geng Qiu's practice of exchanging prey cheaply for everyone every time made them have a very good reputation in this village. That way, no one will stumble in the back.

"Tomorrow I'll go to the market town to find a doctor, and I'll show you this headache." Geng Qiu pondered for a few days and finally spoke.

"Look, I'm fine." Sure enough, Ah Hao disagreed.

"You know that you have something wrong in your head, and you don't look at it, what if it becomes stricter and stricter? Anyway, now that we're idle, and we have some money in our hands, let's go and take a look, get some medicine to eat, maybe it'll be fine. Geng Qiu patiently persuaded.

"Don't go, what's a good doctor here, can you see something."

"Didn't Steward Zhou say a few days ago, let's bring him some pickles or something. It's just okay, let's go to the town market to have fun, and by the way, bring some of the ones I made, soak sour radish, smoke fish pieces, and go to Zhoufu. Geng Qiu had no choice but to change the subject. He also wanted to ask Steward Zhou by the way if he knew a famous doctor. Here, among the people he knew, only Steward Zhou was a big man.

"I wanted to send him something, and they sent so many things to us. We just helped out. Ah Hao said that he felt that the incident of saving Xiaobao was actually a very small matter, and he had the thirty taels of silver given by the middle-aged man, and he was at ease, but Steward Zhou gave too many things, but he felt a little uncomfortable. Some homemade side dishes at home are not worth much money, but they are novel and taste good. It's also appropriate to give it to Steward Zhou.

A jar is spicy radish skin, the skin of fresh radish is shaved off, thick, with a thin layer of meat, cut into pieces, add salt and a small amount of sugar plus chili, add some garlic, soak in the jar, the weather is cold and it will take more than half a month to eat. The other jar is cabbage stalks, choose thick cabbage stalks, only add salt to make kimchi, when eating, you can eat directly, you can also take it out and fry, such as adding some meat to fry, add some when cooking fish, you can also eat it directly fried. The kimchi he made himself zuò was sour, crisp and delicious, especially the radish skin was sweet and sour, and it was very appetizing.

After deciding on this matter, the next morning, the two went out after breakfast, this time the mule was not brought, Geng Qiu carried a small basket, which contained some side dishes for Steward Zhou.

Seeing them, Steward Zhou was very happy, and still invited them to his small courtyard to drink tea and eat snacks. Steward Zhou is actually very idle here, with few masters, and he is far away from some rights and wrongs, and his life is very leisurely.

"Here are some small dishes made by our family, you can try them, they are delicious, I will send some over next time." Geng Qiu pointed to a few things on the table, the pickled radish in the small jar, and as soon as the jar was opened, it smelled sour and spicy.

"This thing is good. When I smell it, I feel like eating. Steward Zhou smiled.

"It's a side dish to eat, and it's very appetizing."

"This fish nugget is black, is it really delicious?" Steward Zhou asked in disbelief. Although he is just a housekeeper, he grew up with the master of the Zhou Mansion, and he eats and uses good things. It's the first time I've seen someone make fish pieces look like this.

"You taste it. We think the taste is not bad, we caught a lot of big fish, pickled some, ready to dry some dried fish, take advantage of the fresh fish, also smoked some, change the taste, so that the smoked fish, not as salty as the dried fish, and more tree fragrance. Geng Qiu introduced. In fact, you can also save salt when making smoked fish.

Steward Zhou carefully took a piece, tasted it, and said with satisfaction: "Really, it tastes good." Your way of making fish is new. ”

"Xiao Gui, divide some of these things and send them to Mother Ju to taste." After Steward Zhou tasted it, he commanded again.

Xiao Gui is the big boy they saw last time. Xiao Gui didn't go for a while, and brought a middle-aged mother over, "Housekeeper, Childe asked me to ask, how are these done?" ”

Steward Zhou motioned to Geng Qiu to tell her, Geng Qiu didn't hide his secrets, and spoke carefully, this mother Ju listened and asked a few questions seriously, and then left satisfied.

"This mother Ju is the mother in charge next to the master of our house. The master is pregnant, and the taste is not good, and everyone in the house is looking for fresh food. These snacks of yours also fit her eyes. Steward Zhou smiled.

"It turns out that there are pregnant women in the house. This side dish is indeed appetizing, but it is better for pregnant women to eat less. People who have a body should eat more fresh and nutritious things. Children grow up well. Geng Qiu reminded. Although he has never taken care of a pregnant woman, he, a modern adult, has seen a lot of this kind of knowledge in TV books. It is also common sense that it is not good to eat too much pickled food. Not to mention being pregnant.

"Hearing what Geng Qiu said, the head is the Tao. Steward Zhou became excited now. Hurriedly commanded again: "In this way, you still know some means of taking care of people who are pregnant with bodies." Xiao Gui, go for another trip and talk to Mother Ju. ”

"Well, I know something simple, but I don't dare to talk nonsense." Geng Qiu hurriedly waved his hand and said.

"It doesn't matter, tell Mother Ju everything you know, and she will know what to do. Our master is in his thirties, and he finally got a body, and everyone in this house is looking forward to the master being able to give birth to a little master peacefully. The old man was also worried, so he put down many things at home, and deliberately took time to accompany him in this courtyard. ”

Sure enough, Naju's mother hurried over again. This time, I was much more respectful than last time, but I asked countless questions like Geng Qiu as a savior. Geng Qiu racked his brains to search for a bunch of daily nutrition and health care knowledge for pregnant women in his mind, including some recipes, some exercise knowledge, for example, pregnant people should eat more vegetables and fruits, have proper exercise, can't eat too well, raise too fat, and so on. I said it over and over again, until Mother Ju understood it and wrote it down carefully, so I let him go.

"Ah Qiu, you know a lot." Steward Zhou sighed.

He really didn't expect that Geng Qiu knew a little bit about everything. These methods and recipes are very valuable, and people pass these things down from generation to generation as wealth, and they are not allowed to pass them on. He and Mother Ju shouldn't have chased and asked like this, and they should have written it down. But in order for the master's child to be born safely, he had to be a villain. This is something that will have to be rewarded again.

"Don't dare to be. Don't dare to be. Geng Qiu said with some embarrassment.

Even Ah Hao looked at him with adoring eyes, as if he was really a great character. In fact, this knowledge is rotten in modern times, you can go to the bookstore and find hundreds of pregnant women's knowledge manuals, nutrition and health recipes, etc. There are even television programs dedicated to it. He didn't study it seriously, but he just remembered some of it and said it. In fact, he can't guarantee how effective it will be.

But these are some common sense issues that he has not learned seriously at all, and many of them are even inadvertently understood in ordinary life, which have become very valuable things in this ancient Daqing Dynasty. Let's just think he has a golden finger too.

Geng Qiu said too much, his throat was a little hoarse, and he drank three cups of tea in a row before he felt comfortable in his throat.
